The eight teams will take it in turns to pick from the available pool of players.

The team who finished last in 2021 (London Spirit) get the first pick, the seventh-placed team (Welsh Fire) second and so on.

In total there are 43 spaces up for grabs in the squads with some teams having more spaces available than others. Welsh Fire have the most with seven.

To complicate matters players have set their 'reserve price', their minimum salary, and must fit into the vacant salary bands in a team's squad.

The Fire have two spaces at £125,000 and one at £100,000 - the highest pay brackets - so are in position to splash cash.

Teams can also have one right-to-match card which they can use to match an attempted signing of a player who was in their squad in 2021.

Some big international stars have entered the men's draft in the hope of getting a deal.

Among them are Australia opener David Warner, Pakistan captain Babar Azam and West Indies trio Kieron Pollard, Andre 'Dre Russ' Russell and Dwayne Bravo.

South Africa's Quinton de Kock, who played for Southern Brave last year, is also back in the draft.

England internationals Tom Banton and Liam Dawson have entered after failing to agree deals to stay at their teams.

Joe Clarke, previously at the Manchester Originals, is another domestic player hoping to pick up a bumper deal.
